it's cold






for anyone enjoying blue skies and warm weather, please spare a thought for us. it's minus 37 with windchill. i think we may be cranking up the furnace and hibernating for a few days. apparently flesh starts to freeze at minus 18, who knew? and no, i don't really want to test that.

normal service will be resumed shortly..


don't ask me where the time has gone because i genuinely don't know other than life with a two-and-a-half-year-old can be draining, especially on your patience. are all toddlers this independent? my son says no to everything, even things he enjoys, and insists on doing everything himself; recently he has insisted on doing the washing up. he is full of spirit that's for sure. i think his lack of speech is frustrating to us all.

we have been renovating, which is always a mixture of joy and pain, especially if you live in an older house like we do but, at last, the bathroom is nearing completion and we can almost use it fully again. i do love it and am very happy with it although the whole process almost drove my husband to the brink. hopefully some pictures will follow sometime in the near future.

well, that's all folks, life seems to have been full of stress and busyness of late and i seem to succumb to every cold/virus that is doing the rounds, plus our kid can't stay in his own bed at night so we never get a whole night's sleep. sleep deprivation is tough. stay healthy!
